The PTA sponsored Reflections Program is an invitation for Baltimore County students to participate in a national program that celebrates the arts. Students in pre-school through grade 12 in every Baltimore County school are challenged to create art that supports a specific theme.
The theme for 2008-2009: “WOW!"

The theme for 2009-2010: “Beauty is…”
The Reflections Program, which
has been in existence since 1969, offers students the opportunity to create original works of art in six areas: dance choreography, film/videography, literature, musical composition, photography and visual arts.
Four entries at each age division (primary – pre-school through grade 2, secondary – grades 3-5, middle – grades 6-8, and senior – grades 9-12) in each of the six arts areas can be submitted by local PTAs to the PTA Council for county judging. Entries winning county awards of excellence are forwarded to Maryland PTA for state judging, which then will forward a total of 24 state entries to National PTA for national judging.
Maryland PTA mails each PTA president a copy of the current year’s Reflections Program packet in August. The packet is also posted to their website; download packet at www.mdpta.org/bridge_reflections.html .
National PTA Reflections program overview and resources can be accessed at www.pta.org/2032.asp .
In order for your PTA to receive timely notices about the Reflections Program we request that all PTAs participating in the Reflections Program register each September by sending their Reflection s chair’s contact information in an email to reflections@bcptacouncil.org
